Elevator Update and new packages in the works

Yes, that’s right… finally an update to the elevator! Things I plan to include in the next update are:

  • Access lists
    • Now you can have Allowed and Denied avatars per floor
  • Customizable speed*
  • Relative floor configuration option
    • Allows you to set all floors as distances from the elevators starting position
    • Ideal for use in the new package listed at the bottom of this post
  • Lower prim doors**
    • Uses dialogs instead of prim buttons
    • Removed LED floor number display

*Planned but not yet tested (may not make final release)
**Not included in update. To be sold separately.

I also plan on releasing a new package for the current Interior Elevator aimed at content creators (replacing the current no-copy/transfer version). This will be a full-permission package allowing builders to include it in their builds. This does not allow the elevator to be re-sold independently. I still have to write up a license agreement detailing the purchaser’s rights. This package will likely retail in the vicinity of L$10,000.

Re-installed forum

The forum was giving me problems trying to upgrade it so I deleted it and installed it from fresh. All information is still intact, the big differences are the lack of forum attachments now and it’s back to the default subSilver look. I may not bother changing too much on the forums since they don’t appear to be overly active – my resources are best spent elsewhere.
I also cleaned out inactive users because most of them (if not all of them) were spam robots.
